Pub chain to take over Douglas venue in May
Enterprise Minister Tim Johnston admits that the arrival of the pub chain Wetherspoons on the Island will provide some local businesses with a challenge.
But, he says there could also be opportunities.
Wetherspoons is set to take over 1886, on Regent Street, from 14 May.
Mr Johnston was asked if some businesses would be worried by this major player arriving on the Island:
Manx Care 'deeply regrets' data request errors
Healthcare provider says it's committed to ensuring full compliance with data protection laws
Woman bitten by dog in Crosby
She suffered minor injuries during incident
Environmental surveys scheduled for proposed wind farm in south of Island
Ecologists to assess environmental consequences of proposed development
No 20mph 'blanket speed limits', says MHK
Thomas thinks targeted approach is what's needed
